I was debating a level. What are your thoughts? I like the idea of a bit taller, and level, but dont know if I want the added gap it would give me in the wheel well.


The beauty is that it should only raise the front so the spacing should look just like your spacing in the back. (possibly another 1" at most in the back if anything)
If you find the gap is too much I will take those tiny wheels from you, no need to stress.

Anybody know if the TPMS sensors work from the previous model? Or does it require the new 2019 TPMS sensors? I see it is a different part #.

I wouldn't do it, but I personally think it looks silly to see a truck squatting down in the back when loaded or towing. Now, if you're rarely doing those things, or you have an auto-leveling air suspension, then it's a different equation!

I would go for it, it makes a huge difference and I think it makes it look alot better. It's all personal preference. With your wheels and tires I think it would look great. If you haul alot of stuff in the bed or tow alot I would look into getting some helper airbags for the rear, otherwise when you tow your rear end will be squatting down.

I will be leveling mine soon. I love the look of the Readylift 3.5 SST but am afraid it may cause some issues because of the angles, even though they are nowhere near as bad as their past kits. I'll most likely be going with the Readylift 2" strut extension leveling kit.

Anybody know if 275/65s will fit without the level kit? I'm still torn between my options and want to put my wheels on asap. I imagine they would as I was able to put them on a 2013 Ram 2wd stock.

Also, for those of you waiting for the Readylift 3.5" kit, it is now in stock on their site.
